"Leadership Scholars gave me a window into my future and made me aware of the challenges that the real world can and will offer. Furthermore, the program made me ready to face and overcome the said challenges by reminding me that staying calm and collected in the face of inevitable is the key."

“I joined the Leadership Scholars Program in 2012 and drove the conversation for the future of the Shadowing Program as VP of Public Relations. In my senior year, I was offered a job and internship through Beckman Coulter, a strategic partner of the Center for Leadership and able to network with the VP of Global Sales through the Scholars Program’s regular visits.”

“My involvement in the Leadership Scholars Program exposed and enhanced my ability to network, market, coordinate, lead and gain exposure to a network of business professionals wiling to guide you. Involvement in the program doesn’t end after graduation, alumni have access and opportunity to give back and advance their career. The employment opportunities are plentiful; the personal growth abundant and the leadership opportunities are always available.”

“The Leadership Scholars gave me visibility within top OC businesses and influential executives. I never imagined myself as a student, being able to sit down one-on-one with an executive and learn their success as well as how they impact their company on a daily basis.”

“The Leadership Scholars has developed my ability to lead and the skills that Companies look for in their employees. The program has also opened doors by meeting and learning from the experience of executives who have already been through the life of a College student. It is wonderful to know that this program wants to see the students succeed and because they do, they are willing to help the students in every way possible.”
